Megabus!

I can not believe that I took the most epic Megabus ride ever and have yet to talk about it! So last Saturday when I was coming back from the best senior dinner ever (shout-outs to Em.Friend, Laura, and E! And Tyler for picking me up and keeping my visit a secret!) it was the third play-off game for the Pacers and the Bulls (GO BULLS) and I noticed about 7 or 8 guys decked out in Bulls paraphernalia who had a six-pack of glass beer bottles that one of them dropped and it shattered everywhere and I thought to myself, 'them, I want to sit next to them'. And as the Lord would have it I got my wish and have never made a better/worst decision in my life.
My seat-mate Kevin and I become fast friends (I mean that literally, because for the last hour of the trip he was passed out) and he quickly offered me a beverage (yes, of course it was beer) and we got to talking about a variety of subjects and Kevin thought it was appropriate to spread several rumours about me. And now, of course, here is a list of rumours Keven spread about me:
1. That I promised everyone that we could do karaoke over the loud-speaker.
2. I had a thing for Dennis our bus driver.
3. I was addicted to crack
4. I had a puke fetish
Other things we discussed: Vince Vaughn, his dentist, our respective high school careers, his girlfriend, me being ready to party (he tried starting a chant of my name), who Terrence Howard was, who would get kicked off the bus (which I was sure was going to happen because I had a beer in front of me, I smelled like beer because one of his friends spilled on me, and for the last half-hour of the trip I cradled a bottle of open whiskey that they were passing around), and yes we have an on-going bet (a Megabus ticket to anywhere in the country) of whoever manages to get with Bradley Cooper first.
In conclusion it was the most bizarre and fun bus ride I have ever had! I do indeed hope to met up and party with Kevin again, but until then,

What not to do...

I'm going to start a new series of blogs called "What Not To Do..." Today we will be talking about what not to do at the bar. Last Thursday I had the pleasure of going out with one of my best friends Cady to Rockwood's to see an amazing band by the name of Simpleton and City Folk. So, the evening was going well until creepy Chris decided to come and "chat" us up. I wish that Chris would see this post to find out what not to do next time. First off, Chris didn't buy us any drinks. I feel that a guy in a bar should never try to approach a lady without offering a drink. At the bar this is literally the easiest way to break the ice ever! I honestly feel this is partly why bars were created! For guys to have easy access to a lot of alcohol to offer to women they think are attractive. I can understand not wanting to spend your money on a stranger and then not have it led anywhere, but these are the risks you have to take. Chris' second error of the evening was answering a phone call from his...wait for it, his wife! All of the sudden the non-offering of drinks made sense. But what didn't make sense was why he was at this bar at 1:30 in the morning talking to a table full of girls! We tried to explain this to him, but he just claimed his wife should trust him. Which I agree the trust should be there, when you are not making poor decisions! And no matter how you look at this situation, this my friend is a poor decision. Chris' last error was that he was awkward. Which is a statement I have no business in saying about another person, so this gives you an idea of how bad it was. You not only need to be brave to approach a table-ful of strangers, you also need to be charismatic. Chris had plenty of bravery, but absolutely no charisma. We literally had to initiate every conversation. It was like he forgot who approached who. And to top it all off he was paranoid! He backed up every statement he said with a 'I'm not lying to you'. Listen here Chris, I never accused you of lying! Why would I?! I don't know you! So there you have it ladies and gentlemen what not do do at the bar. love, ktv

Chrip, Chirp (no wait, I mean tweet, tweet)

Yes I officially have a twitter. I'm ashamed of myself, but somehow I've managed to live with it. Anywho follow along: http://twitter.com/#!/KillaKval. I'm sure you might be disappointed.

Tweeting!

Yes, yes, yes I'm thinking about getting a twitter account. Well actually I'm in the process of thinking of a twitter name, because I've definitely decided to get one. Now on top of my journal, this blog, and my facebook, I've decided to add another thing I won't keep up with!
In other news Florida was amazing! I had the best time laying on the beach all day and drinking. It was fantastic! I can't think of living life any other way now.
And I might have to change the name of this blog to semi-working girl, because I have a nannying position three days a week. It'll be so nice to have money, because I've just reached the point in my wardrobe where I hate everything in my closet. So without further ado here are some things I'm going to do with my extra cash flow:
1. Start paying off some loans.
2. Start consistently tithing at church
3. Shopping! In particular I want boat shoes and overall shorts.
4. Save up for Monique and Aquillia's birthdays, because they are both looking like they are going to be expensive!
5. Travel (New York and Ohio are both topping the list)
6. Go to live concerts/Traveling around Chicago-land.
That's all I can think of right now and I might try and save up a few dollars every now and again!
